Life presents us all with challenges. Most of us at some point will
be struck by major traumas such as the sudden death of a loved one,
a debilitating disease, or a natural disaster. What differentiates
us is how we respond. In this important book, three experts in
trauma and resilience answer key questions such as What helps
people adapt to life's most challenging situations?, How can you
build up your own resilience?, and What do we know about the
science of resilience? Combining cutting-edge scientific research
with the personal experiences of individuals who have survived some
of the most traumatic events imaginable, including the COVID-19
pandemic, this book provides a practical resource that can be used
time and time again. The experts describe ten key resilience
factors, including facing fear, optimism, and relying on role
models, through the experiences and personal reflections of highly
resilient survivors. Each resilience factor will help you to adapt
and grow from stressful life events and will bring hope and
inspiration for overcoming adversity.
Humans are remarkably resilient in the face of crises, traumas,
disabilities, attachment losses and ongoing adversities. To date,
most research in the field of traumatic stress has focused on
neurobiological, psychological and social factors associated with
trauma-related psychopathology and deficits in psychosocial
functioning. Far less is known about resilience to stress and
healthy adaptation to stress and trauma. This book brings together
experts from a broad array of scientific fields whose research has
focused on adaptive responses to stress. Each of the five sections
in the book examines the relevant concepts, spanning from factors
that contribute to and promote resilience, to populations and
societal systems in which resilience is employed, to specific
applications and contexts of resilience and interventions designed
to better enhance resilience. This will be suitable for clinicians
and researchers who are interested in resilience across the
lifespan and in response to a wide variety of stressors.
